INSTALLATION
NOTE: Immediately check for shipping damage and report to shipping company.
HEAVY! Use two people to carefully lift laminator from box.
Place laminator on stable surface capable of supporting 150 lbs. The surface should be at least 30” high
for ergonomic work position (TechnOkart Recommended).
NOTE: Exit position of laminate should be clear to allow lm to drop to oor after lamination process.
Power Connection: Use only suitable grounded outlet. Ensure dedicated 110 volt/15amp circuit. Avoid
other equipment on same circuit to prevent nuisance fuse or circuit breaker tripping.
EXAMPLE: photocopier with laminator on same circuit will cause problems!

STEP 4 - New Film Loading
• Carefully note which way adhesive is wound on new
roll of laminate lm. 1” core laminate is normally wound
with adhesive in. Loading the lm backwards will
result in the hot rollers getting glued up and a jam will
occur. This is easily avoided by taking extra care when
threading laminate. Look closely at the pictures below
and note how the lm is threaded.
